In Akypor, we have a building (the un-named building) that seems to hold a large number of characters locked up by an evil doer. The building is so full, that when any would-be rescuer attempts to enter, they are told the building is too full to enter. Unfortunately, this message seems to take precedence over the message that the door is locked, so that none of us can pick the lock to free the characters inside. I have reported this on Flyspray for consideration for a change in the sequence of door checking (i.e. to check for locks first, available space inside second) but wonder if we could have the door unlocked through divine intervention while the larger request is being considered.

Gods! In Akypor?! Evildoer?

I think one way to fix this problemis programming that allows a person with a key to unlock the door from both sides.

Isn't that the way it already is?

No, you have to inside the room where the lock was built in order to unlock or lock it.

Ahh.... I understand.

Or break the lock from the outside....

Is that possible?

You can break the lock from the outside.

Good!

Well, there is your IC sollution without divine intervention.

Did you guys miss this bit in the original post? They already tried lock picking.

Oh... oops....

Give the key away and break the lock.

*palm to forehead
Even if they don't have a key - the option to break the lock doesn't appear...

This might be better flysprayed?

Seems you and I, Jetlag, are the only ones who can read!
